Pedigree Chum said:That's a good thing, Halo1's cutscenes were so breif that I didn't even bother following the story after the first few levels. Halo 2's OTH are longer (but not too long, and come after quite a bit of gameplay), are directed a million times better, and are beautifully intertwined between Master Cheif and the Arbiter (ie. You do something as MC, and the Arbiter comments on those actions later on during a cutscene, so cool, it gives your actions real weight). I'm REALLY enjoying the storyline, which is suprising since I was expecting nothing from it going off of Halo1.
Halo 1 didn't need longer cut-scenes since a lot of the details were discussed while you're playing, especially later in the game with Cortana and Guilty Spark. It's perhaps less flashy, but I still like it.
